physics and math is like

2016-07-25 02:03:12 UTC  

the fundamental of the fundamentals

2016-07-25 02:03:21 UTC  

if you can't understand those, you're gonna have a hard time moving forward

2016-07-25 02:03:42 UTC  

you might find code easy, but that's a small part of electronics work

2016-07-25 02:04:02 UTC  

if you can't get past math, you'll find stuff that isn't the most basic shit extremely difficult

2016-07-25 02:04:20 UTC  

Any resources?

2016-07-25 02:04:24 UTC  

yes

2016-07-25 02:04:31 UTC  

if you're confident about math and physics

2016-07-25 02:04:37 UTC  

just buy art of electronics 3rd edition

2016-07-25 02:04:41 UTC  

college in a box tier book

2016-07-25 02:05:21 UTC  

if you're not, and if you want to just brute force your way through, youtube videos about arduino projects

2016-07-25 02:05:28 UTC  

and follow official tutorials

2016-07-25 02:06:00 UTC  

but to do like really complex custom projects you need to have a pretty good understanding of a lot of things before you can attempt something

2016-07-25 02:06:22 UTC  

Do you do this for a living?

2016-07-25 02:06:26 UTC  

kinda

2016-07-25 02:06:31 UTC  

i'm an electrical engineering student

2016-07-25 02:06:33 UTC  

3rd year

2016-07-25 02:06:41 UTC  

i'm interning at nvidia

2016-07-25 02:06:48 UTC  

Nice

2016-07-25 02:06:52 UTC  

ty

2016-07-25 02:07:17 UTC  

imo

2016-07-25 02:07:19 UTC  

having a good mentor

2016-07-25 02:07:23 UTC  

is the best thing

2016-07-25 02:07:27 UTC  

I'll keep all in mind, hopefully I won't run out of motivation like when I tried to draw or do programming

2016-07-25 02:07:36 UTC  

Heh

2016-07-25 02:07:41 UTC  

i have a mentor person and he keeps me going sometimes

2016-07-25 02:07:50 UTC  

the most helpful resource imo

2016-07-25 02:08:03 UTC  

i'm probably gonna hang around here so lmk

2016-07-25 02:08:16 UTC  

but i hate discord since it doesn't respect my freedom

2016-07-25 02:08:17 UTC  

lmao

2016-07-25 02:08:38 UTC  

finding motivation is hard

2016-07-25 02:08:50 UTC  

if you have deep pockets, keep throwing money at it

2016-07-25 02:09:08 UTC  

i spent quite a bit on my new project and i've been pretty motivated

2016-07-25 02:09:13 UTC  

I got like 2 grand from a previous job

2016-07-25 02:09:20 UTC  

Should be ok

2016-07-25 02:09:22 UTC  

yeah

2016-07-25 02:09:29 UTC  

if you can turn that all into disposable income

2016-07-25 02:09:34 UTC  

you'll be great

2016-07-25 02:09:39 UTC  

but if you can't that's also fine

2016-07-25 02:09:57 UTC  

if you wanna go top down, just pick a decent project and work at it

2016-07-25 02:10:21 UTC  

something without ridiculous design constraints like high voltage or high frequency
